Bentley is not a man of principals he wants everyone to believe he is. He is a leader with no backbone and puts his dirty work off on someone else to do so he can wash his hands. All he is is a puppet for riley.

As time goes on you will find Bentley to be nothing but a coward. I'm sure this is not important to you anti- bingo people that are glad the machines are leaving Alabama but just days before the announcement Bentley met with the owner of Greenetrack assuring him that Greene and Macon counties should be allowed to reopen and he knew the Indian casinos could not be shut down. The next day he had his chief of staff to visit Strange's office and instructed him to handle all the bingo issues. My point he lied to the owner of Greenetrack typical republican. How do you feel about riley on his last day in office transferring 7.9 million dollars to the attorney general's office to fight gambling. How much do you think riley's family will benefit from that they have already been paid millions to fight gambling in Alabama while lobbying for the Indians. This money surely could have been spent in a more needy place.

You need to check your facts before you are so quick to put out untruthful statements concerning the jobs at the casinos. First of all they were good paying jobs with great benefits such as health,dental,life insurance,401k, At christmas there were christmas bonuses given to every employee, drawings for monetary gifts,and automobiles.To the employees that were single parents or just having a really hard time presents were bought for their children for christmas. Can you say that about your employer and if you're self-employed do you do anything special for people?

Good luck in getting the ethics commission to investigate any Republican There were many ethics charges filed against Riley and none were ever investigated by our infamous commission. They have away of turning a blind eye to the ovious especially if you have an R.in front of your name.

Governor Bentley take heart and don't listen to the pro Riley newspapers. If Riley has been the greatest governor this state has ever had why is Alabama in such a mess? If he hadn't been so obsessed on closing down the legal casinos he might have gotten some important work done.

In this article he paints a pretty grim picture on the condition of this state. All money accounts are have been emptied,the education system sucks,the states economy is at an all time low,high unemployment. Gee Bob Riley you were the best governor we ever had. I'm neither blind or a democtat.

In this news conference after his election Bentley states casinos with an amendment to the constitution voted on by the people would have to be allowed reopen. Hopefully he will be a man of his word.

Let me get this straight. Is this the same John Tyson that took $100,000 dollars from Mr.McGregor knowing he owned a casino then tried to raid the casinos saying they were illegal? How freaking hypocritical. He fit right in when he switched to the Republican party the" Party of Corruption."

In the article above it states their main priority is to investigate and prosecute PUBLIC officals. If this is true hopefully they will investigate all the ethic lawsuits filed against Bob Riley and prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law. Oh pardon my ignorance Luther Strange worked in the same law office as Bob's son-in law. Need I say more.
